London Taxi’s – Be one step ahead this New Year’s Eve

Transport for London has issued some useful information about Central London this New Year’s Eve for Taxi Drivers.

The annual fireworks on the River Thames in London attract many people from far and wide with a large proportion of them having tickets to the main viewing areas for the display.  The following information provides important information for those dropping of picking up passengers.

Viewing Areas – Ticket Holders

Each ticket sold for the event will specify which viewing area they will need to go to in order to watch the fireworks. All viewing areas have a specified entrance and it is important to know which area the passenger holds a ticket for.

The designated areas have been colour coded (this will also be shown on the tickets). TFL have advised the codes are as follows;

  • Red – along Victoria Embankment, between Embankment Station and Temple Station
  • Blue – along Victoria Embankment, between Northumberland Avenue and Westminster Bridge
  • Green – Belvedere Road
  • White – Westminster Bridge
  • Pink – Waterloo Bridge

A map has also been provided by TFL to make it clear as to where each viewing area can be entered by.
